I will be doing ethics consultations as part of my postdoc. This involves actually meeting with patients as well as consulting with psychologists, physicians, etc. I am wondering if these would count as clinical hours? I hope so, it seems similar to the C/L work I have done on internship.
I'm starting to try to read through/understand state licensure requirements and woof, some of these are written in such a confusing way. Is there a trustworthy website that breaks these requirements down by state in more plain English?
Finally related to my personal situation, one of the states I was looking at stated something about there being a minimum number of hours of post-doc hours accrued each week to "count". On the other hand, I have definitely heard of individuals who mainly do research chipping away at their clinical hours over time. Am I understanding correctly that in some (many? all?) states one's postdoc hours would only count toward licensure if there were X # of hours completed each week? I will be rotating on and off a clinical service so I would have some weeks where I have no clinical contact.
Thank you!!
